**I did a quick search and didn't see a dedicated thread to sewing patterns. If there is another can a bartender merge this with that one?**
Show us your sewing patterns!! Bonus spirit points if you post a picture of what you made from it next to it!!
I have been terribly naughty. As we know...
Hey gang! It's been a spell since I last stepped foot in here. I like what you've done with the place. I've been feeling a bit nostalgic for this place and the wonderful (and sometimes not) discussions of all things golden era. It's good to see some familiar faces. I just wanted to say a quick...
It has been about a decade and a half since my last FL posting... I swear I used the search button to find this topic, but didn't see a thing, so if it already exists, I can't believe that it doesn't, please merge.
I love sweater sets and dresses. I own 4 vintage sets (30s-50s) and have one...
Hey Ladies,
I am selling these vintage style shoes I bought many years ago that were just too big for me. They've never been worn (except to try on) and are in perfect condition. They are a chocolate brown velvet with gold trim and have ankle straps.
They are sized at 8 1/2
10 1/2...
Hi everyone! I just moved to Kenosha from Phoenix and I was just wondering if anyone knew what and where the vintage scene is here. Are there any events nearby coming up? Any places to go and see? Thanks!

My friend and I were discussing this today and I wanted some expert opinion. Neither her or I can recall a time where even the fanciest fedora was ever successfully paired with a tuxedo of either white tie or black tie. This also includes black or white tuxedos or dinner jackets. So I suppose...
Does anyone here know anything about ladies scarves? My mommie just gave me my Grandmother's old scarves and I know nothing about them. My Grandma passed in 1978, one month before I was born, so these scarves are earlier than 1979. How much earlier, I am unsure. Here are some photos. If anyone...
Alright ladies... I have a newsboy cap that I LOVE! Other than the typical boyish charms outfits you can wear with the cap, what are some great looks that can go with it? Perferably vintage or retro... but I dig modern looks too. :) Thanks!
Hey Guys and Dolls!! In two weeks I will be making my first trip to New York ever! Yay!! I have 3 Burlesque shows scheduled so if you would like to see the shows email me at LolitaHaze (at) cox (dot) net and I will email you the details of the shows. I know it isn't that big of a deal, but dang...
After reading about banana filled Twinkies I thought we could start a thread on random Golden Age trivia... I'll start.
The Shiba Inu, a Japanese dog and the breed of my boys, "nearly became extinct in the latter phase of World War II, with all subsequent dogs bred from only three surviving...
Not to take over Daisy's thread on chick flicks, I thought I would start a new thread on horror movies. So what are your favourite horrors?
I love Sleepaway Camp and Evil Dead. Both are late 70's early 80's films, which happen to be my favourite time period for horrors. The special effects...
In case anyone was curious to the level of my humor. I believe this little pictorial sums it all up. I was laughing for an hour after I read it. It tickles me like no other. I was snorting because I was laughing so hard. It is the last line that does me in... so when you read the last line...
So... I am in my apartment for at least another year and I finally decided to spring clean, redecorate, and vintagize my apartment... only problem... white walls, silver carpet, grey with brown splatter counter tops and beige cabinetry. It doesn't look as bad as one would think, but for what I...
Ok I know NOTHING about wartime medals... but it would be my guess that the winged figure on the one is of Nike, the Greek Goddess of Victory (Victoria in Roman). She would blow the trumpet to home coming fleets I believe... and the laural wreath was to be granted to the naval captain... I...
Hi Ladies. I haven't been around for awhile, but I would love to see any photos of fall fashions, be it you in vintage or old ads... anything. Thanks.

Hi Boys! I found this link to custom men's shoes that have a vintagey look from what I could tell. I thought you all would like to take a peek. I don't know if this has been posted before and if it has my apologizes.

Ok Ladies... What do you end up making or doing with your fabrics scraps that you just can't throw out? Do you make accessories to match the outfit or dress originally made from the fabric? Suggestions and photos are now being accepted!!! lol
